Now in Hi Definition
Thanksgiving went well. I basically ate a whole tofurkey by myself in the span of 24 hours except for one or two slices Katie got. Everyone loved the cupcakes I made and Katie decorated. Got some housewarming money from the grandparents which will help immensely.
On Black Friday Katie and I set out to get a 32" LCD HDTV from Staples. We woke up a little late at 4:30am but there were only about twenty people ahead of us in line and by the time the doors opened about a hundred more behind us. Essentially we got there after the hardcore who had been waiting there basically all night and before the lazy and the leftovers from the stores that opened at 5am. I got in, grabbed the TV, and got out before the end of the line had finished getting into the store. I was the first one on a register and out the door and we got home before traffic got super destructive.
I got the TV setup yesterday when we got home from Springfield and everything looked pretty good. It's huge. But it's a HDTV and we had nothing to show for it so tonight I got some component cables for my Xbox and now it looks like Jesus licked all my Xbox games. None of my PS2 or Gamecube games support HD and only about half of my Xbox games support it but the ones that do look incredible. We hooked up Katie's stereo to the audio-outs to drown out the crappy speakers that the TV has and now our little home theater setup isn't so bad.
